The Garden Spa and Gallery

I am truly indebted to Karen and Lori for their efforts in helping me rehabilitate my shoulder after surgery. With their massage, stretching and encouragement, I have full use of my shoulder (again). I highly recommend the Thai massage for those of you wanting a great stretch, a deep muscle massage and total relaxation. I miss them dearly as I now live in Austin. I visit them again and soon. - Barnet

Pros: Total relaxation. Total involvment by the staff. Excellent techniques

Cons: None.

What an awesome experiance!!!! This was my first facial ever and now thanks to Maribel, I'm hooked for life! I also had a foot treatment called Heart and Soul that was incredible!! She was fantastic and made me feel very comfortable the minute I walked through the door!....a very warm and welcoming atmosphere! I will absolutely go back and I highly recommend you look no farther and head for The Garden Spa and Gallery to see Maribell!! I can't wait to go back!

Pros: A great experience!

Cons: No cons at all!!

This was my first experience in a full body massage and it felt like I had died and gone to heaven. Maribel did a fantastic job on my shoulders. I recently had surgery on my shoulder and it was the best experience I've ever had. The room was nice and cozy like if I was in my house in my bedroom. I felt very comfortable and relaxed. I highly recommend Maribel. High points for Maribel!!

This is a beautiful and amazing Spa. Walking in you feel like you are in a serene, safe place. The first thing that caught my eye was the table with the beautiful candles and accessories in the front room, you go deeper and you are surrounded with soft chairs for the waiting room and more beautiful candles while soft music plays. This spa is warm and inviting while being a great place for not only Women but Men as well. It’s hard to capture here on this page, it’s such a fantastic spa , I wanted to try everything , not only for me but I wanted to book for Man as well!!!!! They have a room for couples massages and treatments, perfect for a valentine gift! I chose a facial today. Maryanne took care of me. Her touch is so gentle, that if you close your eyes the facial feels like caresses. She has trees above her skylight and it was softly raining that day. Pure Bliss! My skin simply glowed after and I felt refreshed and ready to tackle the rest of my week. You just have to go and see this for your self. It’s on a frontage road on 635, so it’s perfect if you are on the go and want to shop, drink and eat after because of its location. If you are from out of town get a map and make this a destination. It reminded me a little of Sausalito in California where the spas are quaint and tasteful. Another world ….. Go now! Get your groove of serenity on today!

Pros: Everything!

Cons: Not one

An absolutely amazing experience! I had a very long day and was almost an hour late for my scheduled massage. They were very gracious and offered to relax me with another service that I may need while I was there with another available spa associate. I chose Eyebrow Threading. Have you ever had your eyebrows threaded? I haven’t until now….. First Ruby took me back to her room…. Each associate has their own room so it is very personal and inviting… Ruby’s had warm dark caramel walls and big green plants with a skylight so you can watch the oak tree sway above you as you relax into this soothing environment ( can you imagine rain? Wow!) . Ruby is a beautiful Indian woman , and as she leaned over me , I thought , I hope mine turn out as great as hers ( big smile) I waited for a painful pluck…. Nothing……I mean no pain at all!!! Eyebrow threading is amazing! It is also a fantastic way to finally get the arch you have been trying to get. I can’t rave enough about eyebrow threading… it is completely painless, very fast, your face does not come out red or irritated, and if you are allergic to anything ( I have a friend that is allergic to everything) come here. ALL of their products are organic, the Spa associates are all amazing talents with their own special story on why they are there and it is really an oasis for the hectic world. I will make my hot stone massage appointment and tell you about it…. But go for something now……… they have a website attached to this with all of their services… the PERFECT GIFT for everyone ( yes even Men, they had one leaving as I was coming in… a regular when he come’s to town they said… nice, nice, place for all ages and genders)!

Pros: Beautiful place for all your spa needs! A MUST GO!

Cons: none

I am EXTREMELY picky when it comes to waxing and delighted to find Ruby here; she always does a great job by understanding what you as a client wants. During past few months here at Garden I also tried deep tissue massage & facials but my discovery here was Eyebrow Threading, thanks to Ruby who uses this twisting cotton thread technique which is awesome and no-pain way-to-go. The staff here is very, very attentive and the aestheticians are wonderful! The treatment rooms are lovely and so serene. I highly recommend this spa for pampering or stress relief!

Pros: Thumbs Up

Cons: No Cons as per my experience

Me & my boyfriend went in for a couples massage and Karen & Cathy were wonderful!! My boyfriend said it was the best massage he had ever had and he's really picky about his massages!! I really loved Kathy too! She was very attentive & I give both of the masseuses 5 stars. I had a facial by Ruby and it was ok. I am a really big fan of facials & I loved the Eminence products but it seemed like she rushed through my facial and there was a lot of exfoliant still left in my eyes when I left. My favorite part of facials are the extractions and I felt that she rushed through it. I give her 3 stars for being friendly, but her facials could use a little more attention to detail. I would definitely go back, but maybe try someone else for the facial. Go definitely for the massage but make sure you get someone good if you want to get a facial!

Pros: Great massages!!

Cons: Facial mediocre

Walking in is an experience in itself. You are surrounded by therapist and estheticians with some great energy and the services were top notch. I am now a fan of threading! The esthetician, Maribel does a great job with the facials and even the Microdermabrasion was relaxing. Massages and wraps are top shelf with knowledgeable therapists. They also sell Eminence products, they can be hard to find and my face is noticibly different than it was a couple weeks before I went in for services. Go see the girls at The Garden Spa!

Pros: Therapist/Esthetician knowledge and personalities. VERY friendly and open.

Cons: Parking lot could be more accomodating.

It was horrible! I came in for a wax and the lady did a terrible job! She didn't even use a light or a mirror! I still had lots of noticable hair and the girl seemed more concerned about my horoscope instead of doing her job. She insisted on taking money from my change as a tip as well. (she didn't have enough money to make correct change) Maybe the massages are good- I'll never know because I won't be back.
